VLC 4.0 Nightly, not playing audio
Posted: 02 Oct 2023 16:18
I'm posting this specifically in the Windows forums as I am using Windows, however I'm not sure if it's only a Windows issue.
I tried posting this on gitlab as an issue, but my account wasn't approved yet. I'm not sure if it's only for contributors or something, but since it's been a few days, I decided to post here.
OS: Windows 11 x64 Version 10.0.22621.2361
VLC version: VLC 4.0 nightly
The most recent functioning version of the nightly is vlc-4.0.0-dev-win64-d3026b16 (https://artifacts.videolan.org/vlc/nigh ... 0902-0430/). All builds after this have the following issue:
Audio, specifically AAC audio does not play. I believe the issue is related to libfaad, however I'm not sure. Most recently tested on build vlc-4.0.0-dev-win64-d5ad9d6a (https://artifacts.videolan.org/vlc/nigh ... 1002-0430/).

Errors and Warnings from the messages log:
The working builds of VLC do not produce the deadlock error:
In both cases, all I did was open VLC, open the video, have it play a few seconds (fullscreen) and then pause.
Additionally, if I open the video through the menu (rather than through windows explorer), the UI is broken and displays the library screen over the video.
No settings have been changed between updating, so the player should still function. Downgrading causes the audio to return as normal.
